mine's preordered already (it looks that awesome, i actually preordered it - and apparently i'm not the only one who's been asking for it here in Witbank), but it only reaches sa officially in march (? exact date). good on THQ for bringing the release date forward again.

not sure about it's exact size - i'm sure u can check the size on either the official dowII website, or via the relic website/forum.
Edit: if delivery is on time - dowII should be in SA on 20 Feb (holding thumbs delivery is one time)

So i've read a few reviews online. NO one liked DOW 2!!!!!.... AT FIRST!!!!!!
Everyone who posted on forums seemed to go from hating the game to loving it. The gameplay is compleytely differant.
I don't wanna write a long post so I'll summarise.
- SHooting is imba strong!!
- Loota boys are imba good because of pinning suppresive fire making units move at half speed... though I heard Eldar are a lot worse
- CC almost never happens due to things dying fast..
- Units are way to expensive
- Req comes in way to slow
- RUN AWAY If your units die you spend half an hour for another squad!
- Oh units get veterancies so retreating is alot more important! Units are not expandable... though they don't get to not be expandable with pinning and imba shooting!
- bulidings are super strong
_dreadnoughts are still scarey
- Dreadnoughts are scarey
- carnifexs look pretty
- Tyranids make the game cool if you love tyranids.
all in all i've heard 50/50
So guys don't expect dawn of war 2 but rather..... Umm Rogue traders 40k or... somthign with out dawn of war cause its nothign like it!
